Hi Randy,

Very good.

My understanding is that some of the additional bandwidth will contain
some HRRR model output.  When the HRRR data will be added to NOAAPort
is unknown to me.

If you go to the top level TDS catalog in a web browser, you should
see a line that says what version of the TDS is being run.  For instance:

http://motherlode.ucar.edu

  thredds.ucar.edu
  http://thredds.ucar.edu/thredds/catalog.html

You can see from this page that thredds.ucar.edu is currently:

THREDDS Data Server [Version 4.5.1 - 20140613.1536]

I don't remember our discussions related to pqact.thredds.tasc, but a
quick look shows that it contains entries like the ones we use for
our TDS data processing.  As far as I know, there has been no update to
the file that we use, but this will change as new data gets added to
NOAAPort.

re:
> Also, I've turned on data reporting..

OK.  What are the names of the machines reporting real-time stats?
I ask because nothing jumped out at me when I just reviewed the
list of stations reporting real-time stats to us:

Unidata HomePage
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu

  Data -> IDD Operational Status
  http://rtstats.unidata.ucar.edu/rtstats/

    Statistics by Host
    http://rtstats.unidata.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/rtstats/siteindex

If you do not see your machine(s) listed in the last page, it is
likely that outbound traffic to port 388 is being blocked by your
firewall.

Cheers,

Tom
